Acoustic treatment designers are able to attenuate specific noise sources inside turbofan engines. Subject to practical considerations, liner design variables may be manipulated to achieve a target attenuation spectrum. But, characteristics of the ideal attenuation spectrum can be difficult to know. Many multidisciplinary system effects govern how engine noise sources contribute to community noise. Given a hardwall fan noise source to be suppressed, and using an analytical certification noise model to compute a community noise measure of merit, the optimal attenuation spectrum can be derived using multidisciplinary systems analysis methods. The subject of this paper is an analytic method that derives the ideal target attenuation spectrum that minimizes noise perceived by observers on the ground. Software is developed and used to test and validate the method on a simple, notional source. With experience gained from minimizing noise of the simple source, the software is tested against a realistic hardwall fan source.
